So I've already searched and researched on these forums as much as I can and I am still pretty confused about wheel fitment for our cars.

I was hoping y'all could help me double check my fitment calculations on a stock thirdgen setup with y'all before picking up my wheels:

Diameter 15" (381mm)
Width (between flanges) 6" (152.4 mm)
Centerline 3" (76.2 mm)
Backspacing 5.105" (129.6mm)
Bolt pattern 5x4.25

I believe this would mean my offset is +2.102" (+53.4 mm)

If I'm correct in the assumption that all thirdgen camaro/firebird wheels are compatible(?), I would need spacers of .10 for the front only, given Skulte's maximums of 5" front and 5.85" rear backspacing. Also I believe I would need adapters for the stock 5x4.75 lugs?

a lot of mess there

first off, its an opinion, but there is no point at all putting wheels on the car that are narrower than factory, it just limits you even more on tire size, and you will be stuck running bicycle tires. factory is 15x7. The ones you have seem to be about 6.5" maybe 7, but from your measurements, they seem narrow

you need a bolt pattern on 5x120.65. IDK what 5x1.25 is, but thats not a correct number for any car.

Those wheels, if the rest of the specs you posted are correct, have too much backspacing for the car, you would need more like a .5" spacer on the front, rear will not need one, but they will look better with a .5 as well.

with .5 spacers, you will HAVE to use longer wheel studs. you will not have adequate thread engagement without.

Honestly, a 6" wheel should have zero offset, or 3.5" of bs. maybe even 3" of bs to keep them out where stock is and looking correct on the car

Is there a reason you are looking at wheels with this spec? or are these something that came up for sale locally?

Whoops I meant 5x4.25, just edited that in my previous post. Yeah there's a guy who has a set locally. I'd try to find better fits of the same style but I've had a hard time finding any. I've been looking for a set for years and nobody seems to have them, let alone know what the brand or manufacturer is, can't find any info on them online, so when the guy said he'd take $100 for them, it feels worth it to make them fit.
